Use the Interactive Chart tool to visualize data in your workflow. Create charts, for example, interactive and multi-layered bar charts, line graphs, scatter plots, pie charts, and more. You can use your dataset to calculate the sum, count, average, minimum, and maximum of your selected choosing. Output your results as different file types using the Render Tool.

Configure the Tool

Run the workflow, before you open the tool, to see a preview of your chart within the Interactive Chart tool. Add a layer—a level of data that can be stacked with additional information to enrich your chart further.

Create Chart

A chart can include one or more layers of data. Add a title, legend, notes, and hover text for additional details.

Show a legend for the chart, and select the legend box font, color, and location. Select and drag the legend to move it to a new location on the chart. For a layer to show in the legend, it must be enabled under Style> Layer.

To add notes to your chart select the Note button and add new text in the Note Text field. Text can be added as Rich Text or LaTeX.

These options are available:

Font: Select from the dropdown.

Size Pixel: Select the size.

Color: Select the color from the palette.

Angle: Select from the up-and-down arrows to increase or decrease.

Arrow: Select Show or Hide.

Width Pixel: Select the size from the up-and-down arrows to increase or decrease.

Color: Select the color from the palette.

Select the "x"to close the Interactive Chart window, and return to the workflow.

Additional Information

The chart title, axes titles, legend text, and notes can be edited by clicking directly on the chart. Add a link to text by specifying a URL. Hover over the area at the top of the Interactive Chart window to view Zoom, Pan, Zoom In, Zoom Out, Reset Axes, Toggle Spike Lines, and Save as PNG options.

Save and Import Chart Template

Save a chart and all its settings as a template, which can be imported into an Insight tool or a different Interactive Chart tool in a workflow.

You will need the same field names flowing into the tool for the chart to render.
